91ɫ��Ƭ

The Theatre Arts program at The 91ɫ��Ƭ91ɫ��Ƭ University has another exciting production waiting behind the curtain. This spring, students will stage a musical based on the bestselling children91ɫ��Ƭ novel “Tuck Everlasting.” Originally written by author and illustrator Natalie Babbit, it tells the story of an 11-year-old girl who longs for adventure. She finds more than she bargained for when she winds up with a family that has found the secret to eternal youth. But along the way, she learns that being young forever isn’t all it91ɫ��Ƭ cut out to be.

Tricia Hulet, director of TMU Theatre Arts, said the production has a cast and crew of 43 students. She added that audiences can expect to see elaborate sets, singing, and choreography. “The themes are fun. There91ɫ��Ƭ adventure. There91ɫ��Ƭ danger,” Hulet said, “but beyond and underneath that, there are great themes of evaluating what really is the importance of life.”

Shows will take place from April 5-13. Tickets can be purchased at masters.edu/theatre.
